Spring has Sprung in Sedona, AZ - 02/21/08 01:11 PM
Our busy buyer seasons for Sedona Real Estate are Spring and Fall.  Although most of the country wouldn't call this spring - the weather is nice and it's feeling like spring (especially when you see the number of visitors in town right now!).  Buyer activity has picked up dramatically with many people looking at the 400+ homes currently available in Sedona.  There are so many deals to be had through short sale, stressed sale, foreclosure that it's bringing the average sale price down and starting to affect the sellers that aren't stressed to sell.  Bottom line - it's a great time … (0 comments)

Search Engine Placement - 02/01/08 01:44 PM
I've been working with my webmaster to increase organic search results when searching the web.  I'm sure that thousands of others in this network realize this - but I'm learning quickly that each word counts on your homepage.  Other tidbits I learned through GoDaddy:
